(scratching "big slug")



How easily I put my foot into the shoe I now boast

Simply for the chance to wiggle my toes

How little I know, that gets followed down this dead end

How much mind I misplace in the name of a girlfriend

When the world bends, and changes its form

I'll throw a raincoat on and fornicate with a storm

I'll be the same as before, like nothing you've ever known

Trying to feel my way through the weather looking for home

But till that time arrives ill keep designing my life

Arrive the need to survive without this disguise

Counter clockwise, cross the I's, dot the t's

And run circles around these docile hypocrisies

They don't understand, good,

Watch how long it took for them to break it down,

And find out its not just a song it's a way of death

It's a don't take a step, it's a save your breath and then came the yes



(scratching "rhyme sayer")



So heres an ode to those who feel they're under control

Like they don't have a whole firm hold on their own soul

Nothing but snow, makes for rough when its cold

You can roll or you can cut your loss and drop your load

From the woman I know that give their partners their all

To the ones that watch and wait for their lovers to fall

To the single file line a mile long in the hall

To the ones that work the cashier jobs down at the strip malls

If the rat bites its tale, you gonna hear it scream

"This is not my life", what is it? A dream?

Between letting off steam and empty bottles redeemed

Was it hard for you to pull me apart by the seams?

Take a deep breath so you can smell the city

Put the alcohol down its fucking up your kidney

No longer will I let them spin me round till I'm dizzy

Either walk away or walk with me
